[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
lol ik i'm giving you credit when i release the next build. what you've helped me with hasn't been released yet so i'm giving you credit once i release the update....(probably in a few hours)

btw what do you think of the rom? have you tried it? :D

also anyone know a fix for the white specs in the notification bar? i got rid of the shadow's above the bottom half of the icon but then comes these white specs lol...i'll try on my own but help is appreciated, any help for any of the problems so far is appreciated :D

but i'm having another long session with this rom tonight fixing, adding, deleting, flashing, wiping, blah blah blah the usual :D

so that means probably a 3/6/11 in a few hours :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
Can't fricken wait! How's the gps and camera functioning? I need both at work so as soon as they're functional I'm jumping aboard!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Appreciate your work. But getting rid of Htc widgets, what I like, don't know is a good choice.

My way of thinking with this was adding more stuff into Sense.

The looks of the rom and speed still captivates me. Went back to 1.0.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
my work on my rom isn't finished YET tonight....but i did update the first post with a fix for those of you who want certain services/apps back :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
3/6 build is up ! :D :D :D test it please and let me know what you think and read the update to the first post before asking questions thanks :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] argonzal:
Link takes you to mediafire then start download link doesn't work
[Hero CDMA Android Development] abadasstanker69:
I agree. I missed friendstream like crazy when I first went to froyo. That clock is epic as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thesparky007:
I honestly think its quite contradictory that you are making a sense rom faster but making it non-sense.

No offense but its stupid to take out all the apps and widgets and everything that makes sense, Sense.

People, atleast me, are looking for a sense rom with all of the sense goodies thats also comparable in performance to say aosp or cm.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
gps and camera work :D

Did you read the first post? Did you see the fix I had included?

EDIT: refresh page and try to download it again b/c it works for me, downloaded it in like 3 min :D

Again did you read the first post? Did you see the fix I added last night?

AND AGAIN lol did you read the first post? Did you see the fix I added last night?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
READ THE FIRST POST AND READ THIS PART FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WANT CERTAIN WIDGETS, APPS, SERVICES RESTORED INTO THE ROM!!!!

...................This is the fix I was talking about everyone lol :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MrDowntown12:
So I just downloaded this rom and I must say... It's stupid fast.

Fastest sense rom I've tried. This thing flies. Great work.

I have a suggestions for you.

Try adding in this lockscreen for a nice Espresso feel.Desire Lockscreen The one in the link isn't the espresso version but its the only one I remember how to find. I know that Nfinite had this lockscreen except the espresso version on on of his roms. NFX-hero 2.2.1 I believe. This adds a very classy touch to the rom. Check it out.

oh and btw, the search box in the market is messed up. Not sure if the search box is messed up everywhere, just noticed it there
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
fastest!??! that's good to hear but i've got something to tell you i'm working on releasing this again soon but instead based of nfx LATEST stock sense rom which means it'll be even faster :D, and i used the espresso lockscreen instead of the default lockscreen. and can someone help me with the search box misalignment? i can't figure it out and i've been trying all day lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
okay so i tried changing the base of this rom to nfx lastest stock rom....didn't work so well and i have no idea why. it flashes and then when i boot it i can't get the bootanimation to start......like its htc > htc quietly brilliant > black screen forever

any help appreciated but for now since i can't get that to work this rom will be based of nfx stock .7 rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I found out how to speed up this rom even more, like way WAY more. Well release next weekend :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Kifno,

You made it happen. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
What do you mean by made it happen? That I actually made the android 2.1 system fast? Lol thanks if that's what you meant :D but I'm testing my release for next weekend and it's flies at jet speeds :) can't wait to release it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Fast....? We know that. I meant make the sense goodies work with your rom.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
lol oh you meant performance + sense apps lol

yeah i figured i need to have an optional fix so that people could re-apply what they choose and still benefit from the performance :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
updated rom all i did was strip it down 100% i still need to update the first post to say what all was removed and what all needs to be kept in the removed apps.zip so that you can have certain services/apps if you want those

edit: 3/7 and 3/7 removed apps zip are officially uploaded....updating first post about removed apps and stuff
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
okay this is how things work with this rom i just realized it.....so after you setup everything give it about 10 seconds once the black 2x2 box pops up saying blah blah blah (wait like 10 seconds so everything will speed up) THEN! i also notice that this rom is like comparing state champion runners (these represent this rom, fastest 2.1 android rom for the htc hero ever :D)....one without a backpack and one with a backpack (both are clones of each other in every way/copies of rom except one with removed apps re-applied and one without anything re-applied)

now the one without the backpack will be the fastest b/c he has no extra added weight (in this case this is the rom 3/7 without re-applying ANY removed apps). the other clone with the backpack is just as fast, its just the more objects and depending on their size, will determine how weighed down this runner is. so the less you add back the faster you are to acheiving this rom's maxium speed :D but i added back a few things and noticed no slow down at all :D (only added back 500kb worth of stuff)

but just saying that's how things work with this rom but still like i said i added 500kb worth of stuff back (i know that isn't a lot lol) and i noticed NO SLOWDOWN AT ALL and this rom still flies at sky rocketing speeds to me :D

also i'd like to say you should check out my tweaked build.prop's for this rom..you need to use the nfx sense based rom's zip files for that tweak with this rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
im not doubting you bro i will be flashing soon as you release the new one but i will say the fastest sense rom i have ever run was hexskrews 1.5 release it was a beast i still go back and run it every now and then i cant wait to test it thanks bro good job im running your build prop and i mess with so many people with it they cant figure out how my phone thinks its a droid x well good job bro
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i released the new one already i had a lot of free time today (no homework) so i went ahead and applied the changes i wanted to apply for my next release (stripping rom more) so the latest release is out :D

lol yeah i do that to at school i say i have a droidx but its a hero ;)

and hexskrews...hmm never heard of it i'll check it out :D

edit: i'm going to try and add what each app i removed does so people can have a better understanding of what has been removed and what it affects :D will do that tonight if i have the chance
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
ok im downloading now what build prop do i use it says sense but i didnt see one for sense
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
use the tweaked build.prop for nfx rom's :D

read first post for all information (i need to add the tweaked build.prop info there) about re-applying apps b/c this rom is STRIPPED DOWN I tell you STRIPPED DOWN OF ALL POSSIBLE APPS/SERVICES FOR MAX SPEED!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
ok bro im getting

E : cant symlink /system/xbin/su

E : failure at line 86 : system:xb in/su

whats making this happen any help would be appreciated bro thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
what recovery? i'm using amon_ra for sprint her v1.6.2 and works perfectly fine...maybe i should add that to instructions....

edit: updated instructions in first post to say flash amon_ra v1.6.2 recovery before even attempting to flash this rom...that fixed it for almost everyone who had problems flashing this rom :D so switch to that recovery via rom manager or via adb shell
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
ok i will try that. im using godspeed overclocked recovery
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i used to use that recovery (love the speed) but i got errors flashing a few roms so i switched back to amon_ra v1.6.2 no errors flashing unless there really were errors with the update-script :D so i'm sticking with this recovery :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
I thought you said your phone was stable at 768.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
this is the first time i flashed this rom what ????
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hero32:
ok bro so far so good its booting up now i will let you know thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Ok make sure you read the entire first post bro and let me know what you think
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
It is I'm referring to how some recoveries say my update script has errors but amon ra v1.6.2 doesn't say that at all so I was saying use this recovery. So my phone is stable at 768mhz,lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
Wow something crazy happened me when I first installed 3/5i did a full wipe it installed and I rebooted but I was getting bootloops on the splash screen witch has honestly never happened to me before usually when I get bootloops its on the boot screen Witch I found very odd so I did a battery pull waited a sec re wiped and flashed again it booted fine then and whent to the Google signin but my data wouldn't work but I had a,normal signal so I decided to skip that and then when it loaded sense it kept crashing over and over like pmgrands Rom does so I went back and did a full wipe again witch worked in his Rom but then it would never boot so I had to restore a nand.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Was it 3/5? try 3/7 also what recovery? and I think I know the problem with why SOME people are having this problem....will fix this issue on Wednesday/tomorrow.

But that is odd bc it works fine for me and others ;)

Also is like to let everyone know after I get this rom with all problems fixed and Rom is stable that'll be it for me and this rom. I'll post what I want to finish with this Rom later.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:
I'm using cm 2.5.7 I know its very wierd its never bootlooped on the splash screen I'm back on nfx stock sprint rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
OH NO!!!!!!!! YOU MUST USE AMON RA V1.6.2 RECOVERY TO FLASH THIS ROM!

Download rom manager from the market and install amon ra using that app or switch recovery using adb shell.

Let me know if you have problems after flashing using amon ra v1.6.2

recovery
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
uploading 3/8/11

this time EVERYTHING THAT DOESN'T AFFECT THE BASIC AND MOST BASIC FUCTIONS OF THE HERO HAS BEEN REMOVED! READ THE FIRST POST BEFORE EVEN ATTEMPTING TO FLASH!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
give the uploads about 30 more minutes i hate my slow upload speeds from my wifi lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nate14:
Not sure if it's been addressed but just flashed 3/8 and ES and Quickboot are showing up and seem to be working fine for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
with only a plain install of 3/8 they don't show up but most people are sure to use the fix and add something back to the rom lol i added back like 4-5mb worth of stuff back to the rom and its still blazing fast!

also for those of you who may have tested 3/8 and noticed what i said to keep for syncing accounts and what you need for the market i added the fix as to why the market and/or setup would FC....it's because you need checkinprovider.apk for both so i updated that in the first post (that took a lot of re-flashing to figure out lol)

so as of now the rom is ALMOST finished (though i will add more tweaks and things in the future over time as i learn more) i just need to fix the market text box that has the weird blue fade on the right and left BUT! i did fix the misalignment of the text box and text from 3/7 and below (it was a framework issue :D) so that's a big update for most of us who may use the market :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I'm going to make another thread for the finished version if this rom once everything is fixed which should be SOON
[Hero CDMA Android Development] someonenewhere:
I been thinking about going back to Sense....

how's this ROM when it comes to battery life though?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
I'd reccomend keeping everything in one thread. People here in the XDA community are pretty smart about searching through a thread for the final product, changelog, etc.

I noticed you said you fixed the issue with account syncing in 3/8. I uploaded 3/7 last night onto my wife's Hero and it hasn't been able to synch her Facebook for HTC Sense. Am I understanding correctly that 3/8 will fix that?

Thanks.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
great b/c all the useless things that you don't want on your phone ARE GONE! plus all other bloat! so no more useless services wasting your battery life :D

no you have to do the fix i talked about to get accounts to sync in 3/8 or 3/7

see the fix.zip i talked about in the first post and how i said how to fix syncing...

you might want to reapply the syncing accounts files and the facebook files :D also the setup files b/c that's what you'll need to get your facebook account working on your phone :D

also 3/8 is way faster than 3/7 :D

edit: as of tomorrow this rom's new base will be NFX 2.32.651.2 stock rom if and only nfx grants me permission to use that as my base for my v2 of this rom :D :D :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
Flashed 3/8 with fix. Everything seems to be running fine! Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
did you alter the fix as you'd like?

also how about the speed of the rom? what is your opinion?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
v2 will be out today (oxed) i won't make a deoxed version unless you all request one by popular demand :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theSlack:
Do you mean 'odexed'? Or have you added the power of an ox to the rom?

LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
So far so good. She's still trying to get everything settled, her first ROM after I rooted for her.

Yeah, I deleted all but 14mb from the fix file. Might be a good idea to add into the OP that you need to re-sign it after doing so.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
odex!!!! you have no idea how long i've been saying oxed on the forums lol

thanks for correcting me :D

thanks for telling me that and update to version 3-10-11 in about 30 minutes i'm uploading it now and i'm about to update the change log :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Using 3/10 now and its awesome! Speed is fantastic with new base (that is why I have v2 by the name bc the Rom has new base)!

I have more plans to improve the user experience/Rom speed EVEN MORE! I want to use data2ext instead of apps2sd (using stock sdcard that came with phone and it makes a big difference in speed). Also I am going to reoptimize the Rom bc I changed the framework so this Rom isn't completely optimized yet. Umm I have a few more tweaks I'd like to add as well. I have a lot ideas I just came up with for this Rom. I want this Rom to be the fastest sense 2.1 EVER. If I keep up the work I can do that someday! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
sorry guys v2 3/10 failed to upload but the removed apps 3/10 was a success...weird huh? lol uploading the 3/10 rom again :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
V2 is up! It's balcony amazing how fast and smooth this release is :D testers for testing for fixes and constructive criticism needed
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jdlumley:
Does the latest rom still require amon ra recovery?

If yes, can you fix it to work on all recovery images?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yup still requires amon ra....but this has a updater-script and update-binary so it might work on others now in v2....test please ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I need 2-3 testers for this rom, testers will be credited
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jdlumley:
I had no problems flashing this rom with CW recovery
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jarrett601:
I'll be testing this while at work today. Anything special you want me to look for?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Anything you find wrong and positive critism
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
I installed the 3/10 rom with all the Removed V2 apks with Firerats mod 182 4. I have noticed that when booting it takes a long time for the screen to display. Loading ......... for more than 10 minutes.

Still installing some apps.

Ahhhh..... no HTC widgets. This happened after a couple of reboots.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jarrett601:
I haven't flashed yet but the in the Facebook settings where it says "Sync all contacts" (It syncs your actual friend list to your phone book) hasn't worked in ANY Sense rom I've ever tried and it works perfectly fine in Froyo/CM7 roms. I'm wondering if very few people use it and never noticed that it doesn't work or if it's a known sense problem because I've never seen it posted on the forums. Anyways I'll be flashing in a few :p
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
No widgets? It worked fine for me and I have message and music widgets added back
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I don't use facebook so I wouldn't know about that
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
Did you go through and set up which Facebook account goes to which contact. Also try clearing data in manage applications. Not sure which ones, maybe contacts, contact storage, and facebook. The sense app names might be different.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jdlumley:
Unable to start Wi-Fi... :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
Htc widgets are gone now. I will try to reboot again. Weird ha...!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
for those of you who want facebook contact sync this may work i wouldn't know anything about facebook and the hero b/c i don't have a facebook and never will

FIXED IN 3/12 UPLOADING NOW :D

Did you install right after flashing rom on amon_ra recovery? also i think i may have fixed that in 3/12 ;)

MY fresh flash booting time is like 30seconds and then i'm at the setup screen.....idk why its so fast for me but not you :confused: OH I JUST READ SOMETHING....you reinsalled all the removed v2 apks lol that's why it took so long lol

THAT IS GOOD TO HEAR :D :D :D

this one is much faster and fixed wifi issues and maybe widget issues as well :D

so only problem left would be search box framework issues
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
3/12 finished uploading i need testers :d you will be given credit for testing this rom for me :d this rom is almost finished :d
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jdlumley:
WiFi is working for me on 3/12. Thanks for the quick fix!:D

Again, I had no problems flashing this rom using a clockwork recovery.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Go to manage applications, and wipe data and cache of rosie, that should bring them back. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
THANK YOU FOR TESTING :D

did you find anything else wrong? any bugs, fc's anything? i'm doing a long 16 hour session of working on this rom to fix things and also on my v1.0 build.prop so i can easily fix anything else that needs to be fixed and reupload :D (i'm going to reupload 3/12 in a few with the search box fix b/c i just fixed it :D) but i'm working on doing more things to this rom before that release i'm working on making apps2sd version, no apps2sd version, and data2ext version :D

the apps2sd version is 3/12 lol but i'm working on making no apps2sd and data2ext version :D

thanks impaler :D credit given to you for quick fix :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
kifno great job i tried to send you a pm but it said temperately unable to send. i have been playing with data2ext on your rom. i will pm with some details if you dont mind.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
if you get it to work great i've been trying for 5 hours now lol

and thanks i'm trying to make this rom as best as possible before i release final version
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
okay everyone i couldn't get data2ext integrated today but i did add more network tweaks to the rom + the tweaked build.prop contains my previous network tweaks so now this rom is a internet speed demon all around :D went from 300kbps dl/ul stock rom to now 700 dl/ul kbps on mobile and i increased wifi network speeds a bit :D i made wifi and mobile network tweaks added to this rom now (and they aren't in the build.prop hehehe) also i added io scheduler tweaks to the rom so boot time is faster, a2sd reading time is faster if you partitioned your sdcard to use a2sd and also read write time is 2x faster now! i used to transfer files at 700kbps from my pc to my phone now i'm transferring files at 1.53-1.42mbps from my pc to my phone :D

and search box is fixed :D also i'm not going to release final version until data2ext version of this rom is releaed! then this rom will be finished :D also the reason behind that is b/c if you have a class 4 or higher sd card then you will notice a dramatic increase in speed using data2ext instead of apps2sd :D

releasing new version with the network and io tweaks in a hour or so... :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
dalvik vm/vm tweaks have been added also first time boot tweaks :D

and these aren't in the build.prop tweak hehehe :) these are exclusive tweaks for this rom :D

still testing all the new goodies before release and i fixed search box issue :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
uploading 3/13 now :D this is the biggest update yet :D can't wait to hear feedback :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
as of now 3/13 is available and i need testers to test it out for possible things gone wrong.

also if anyone else want to leave some positive feedback thanks :D

this would be the final release but i have just a few more things to do (data2ext to go along with IO Scheduler tweak for massive app loading time and speed boost :D, and a few minor things)

edit: the build version will say 3/12 in the about phone information but i just uploaded it during the midnight and forgot to change that....acutally i'll change that now

edit #2: 3/13 won't be available for 15 minutes now sorry i have to reupload
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
okay 3/13 is officially up and i need testers and postive feedback/critisism

thanks a lot everyone :D this would be the final version but again i have just a few more things to do (minor adjustment & data2ext + class4+ sdcard + io scheduler tweaks = MASSIVE INCREASE IN SPEED!) so until then this rom isn't finished but VERY VERY CLOSE!

:D

biggest and fastest update yet check changelog in first post :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
No problem man, nice work on the rom
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
yeah i hit the jackpot on version 3/13 lol

edit: this is getting rediculous i did a few changes to io schedule and network tweak for 3/13 release (the reupload) and now i went from 300kbps dl/ul stock to now 1200kbps dl/up 3/13 :O then i went from 700kbps transfer from pc to phone, and now i'm getting 1.88mbps transfer...lol i love this update :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
hay kifno you need to turn on data rooming when it boots im rooming and it wont turn wifi on so i have no internet at startup not a big deal. thought it could help.
